Tabloid, 16 pp. Unopened. Text clear and complete. On aged and foxed paper, with chipping to edges. Editorial, headed 'The Work Before Us', lays out the position of the new paper: 'It will be the duty and ambition of the "CHELSEA HERALD," while neglecting no local interest, while carefully protecting local enterprise from ignorant and intolerant dictation, to do all in its power to strengthen the hands of the True Popular Party of England in the National Legislature of the land.' Reports include 'Alleged Starvation of a child' and 'Jobbery in Fulham'. Feature on domestic architecture, titled 'Barbaric Drawing Rooms' ('In a new block of residential flats in Allen-street, Kensington, the proprietor has put elaborate cast-iron fire-places and over-mantels similar to some exhibited at the Smoke Exhibition two years ago at South Kensington'). The only copy on COPAC is at the British Library.
